Battlefield is the most interactive, realistic, massive FPS ever made and continues to improve with the new BF$ coming out. COD is like candy land and BF4 is chess times 10!........... Vehicles, massive maps, destructible environments. WOW! play it once and guaranteed you will be hooked...

I bought Ghosts first, as I have been a fan of that series, but honestly, it was pretty boring after only a few weeks. The online play is just run around like a fool, twitch shoot, and act like a fool on your headset.....really.I was strongly recommended to give Battlefield a try, and I'm so glad I did. The campaign was ok, but honestly, campaigns are just the opening act for multiplayer anyways. The multiplayer is outstanding! You actually have to think, and use strategy, not just run around at a full sprint spraying bullets. It was a wonderful change from the tired COD gameplay. The maps are excellent, with a lot of variety and things to do. The spawn system makes COD look really bad, you choose spawn spots that your team has earned....super smart designThis game looks great, sounds great, and most importantly, is really, really fun. I would have given it a 10 except all the freeze-up bugs haven't been fixed yet....but that is easy to forgive.I'm glad I traded in Ghosts for this game.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

This game is not for casual players. Period. Kill trades, 1-3 bullet hit deaths, No physics on small objects (petty I know, but it still matters), unfinished animations on some levels, Poor balance on weapons, No true level destruction and use of the environment to use against your enemies (like in BF3, where you could drop building debris on your enemies), pointless level effects that prevent you from seeing the enemy, dimmed glints on 7x scopes and up making it difficult to see the snipers before they shoot you, slow or no registry of enemies shooting with no suppressor on the mini map, and finally and worse of all, The Network for this game is absolutely Dreadful, Terrible, and Pathetic. They clearly didn't learn from there mistakes from Battlefield 3, it's better than 4 at the moment in my eyes. Don't get this unless you really want to rage and have unfair gameplay in multiplayer. I played this franchise from Bad Company 2, I'm disappointed. Once again, Beautiful sound and graphics, but lack of great gameplay.

I don't understand why this game has such a low overall rating. Sure there were some early-on glitches and problems (most of which have been patched by DICE), but what major online multiplier game hasn't had a problem on launch day with its servers? Battlefield 4 has a decent single player although its pretty short, but c'mon, who really buys a battlefield or cod game for it's single player campaign? Ok multiplayer. It's multiplayer has to be the best of any fps I've ever played and i honestly haven't really experienced many glitches or bugs playing on 360. There aren't that many maps right now, but there is dlc. The thing is, every time you play, even on the same map, its an entirely different situation and it never gets old due to incredible levoloution and destructible environment. I know there are mixed feelings about all of the vehicles in multiplayer, but personally I love getting in an attack helicopter and wreaking havoc on the enemy team. Its not to the point where its impossible or annoying trying to play on foot because of the vehicles either (there are plenty of ways to take down tanks and helicopters that aren't that hard). Not to mention that there are A LOT of guns and unlockable attachments. It also has seven great game types that are all really fun. If you're on the fence between getting either cod: ghosts or bf 4, the choice is clear: you can't go wrong with battlefield 4. I own both and find myself spending most of my time on battlefield, and I hope this game gets recognition for being an incredible fps that it deserves.

This is the best shooting game I've ever played in my entire LIFE! I am so obsessed with the multiplayer mode . To be honest I just got the game a week ago & every since then I've been playing it everyday. I use to be a cod player but not anymore thanks to battlefield 4.

The battlefield is always stepping up their game. Some people say that this is just like any other fps but it's not. Battlefield is an interactive game that takes the fight land, air, and sea. It is the most interactive fps there is! Not like Call of Duty which is the same thing every time the only difference is a new interactive campaign, new guns, and new kill streak rewards. All fps games cannot match the potential that battlefield has to offer. Battlefield 4 is definitely going to blow away all fps games that are coming out right now. And also this game looks Badass!

Battlefield has gotten even better than before, and I think it is worth buying. I have read some reviews complaining about some of the same stuff, including the storage space needed, the glitches, the problems in multiplayer, and a poor campaign. I have to disagree about the campaign, at least for the beginning of it. It starts off really well and has a good plot, but the ending is a bit of a disappointment. I was upset by how short it was; only took about 5 hours on the hardest level. Guns in this game are very realistic, and that is a big plus for battlefield. While there is some war in the sea, there is none in the air. I was hoping to drive a helicopter or jet, but no missions had it. The big problem with the campaign were all these glitches. Your character can stay in stealth if you are hiding in certain areas, but your squad will go out in the middle of everything talking like they are at a concert without getting detected. The graphics will also get a little glitchy, probably because the game is optimized for Xbox One and PS4. The multiplayer on the other hand is SUPERB! Graphics, sound, maps, FUN!!! I have been playing online for quite a while now (about 7 hours) and I think it is even better than BF3, and definitely better than MW3 (Notice I did not say Call of Duty Ghosts considering I have not played it yet). Driving the vehicles takes a little getting use to, but after a few hours you will get used it just like any game. There are new game modes and also an option to be commander of the team which gives you cool abilities like assigning jobs to players and sending in airstrikes. The multiplayer has really gotten improved. Everything is destructible, except for rocks, which makes the game very action packed. Overall, the multiplayer is addictive just how BF3 was.

Should you buy this game? Make sure you have at least 5GB free space (Just to be on the safe side), and you got to love big warfare with vehicles and realistic shooting (makes it harder than COD). Don't blatantly buy this game not knowing what you are getting and then trash talking it in a review. Hope you take this review into consideration, enjoy playing BF4!!!

Don't waste your money! If your buying this for the the single player campaign then it is an awesome FPS. Best one I have played yet. On the other hand the multiplayer side of the game is so full of bugs it makes you wonder if they even bothered to Beta test it before they rushed it to market for the holiday season. Be prepared to have your console constantly lock up, even in the middle of an online match. Reboot the console, over and over again - possibly as much as 4 to 5 times in a 2hr period. Looking forward to playing with your friends in a party as a team - good luck, and definetely not on the first map. All my friends have experienced the same issues and are about fed up with it already. This is not the first time a game associated with EA Games has been totally messed up from the word go. Makes you wonder.

I got this game not knowing what to expect, because the last Battlefield I owned was Battlefield 2 and I couldn't play multiplayer because i was under 13 and couldn't make an EA account and once i turned thirteen was uninterested in battlefield because Halo 3 had come out. The games landscapes look really good from a distance but once you get up close everything looks pretty grainy, the graphics remind me of Halo: Reach, they look good but not great. plus when you first join all the textures still need to generate and the vehicle sounds don't turn on for a few seconds but once everything loads it looks pretty nice. You will never forget the first time you are in a building and the wall gets blown in by a tank, everything shakes appropriately and the explosions sound really nice. In honesty I think Ghosts has better graphics but this has much better gameplay and destructibility and you can drive tanks, humvees, and jets. All in all, yes it can be glitchy and has some graphical issues but it is playable and very fun.

Review 8 for Battlefield 4

BF4 All The Way!

Posted on:4/9/13

AC3Assassin

Location: Hoover, Alabama

Can't wait for the release of Battlefield 4, I bought the MOH: Warfighter game for the BF4 Beta, I love the preorder bonus dog tags! So preordering this soon once a bit of extra cash comes rolling in, Can't wait to go to GameStop to preorder this! Already preordered several collector's editions like The Last Of Us Survival Edition and The Dead Island Riptide: Rigor Mortis Edition, I really hope they announce a collector's edition for BF4 because if they do I am so going to buy the best edition they have, they do have me wondering though who the main hero of the story is, I see a new face on the posters and cases but I wonder if we will see any of the past characters. the past characters were pretty cool and the BF3 plot was so detailed and in some parts had me sad because of the deaths of some close soldiers. I really am looking forward to beating the campaign of this and playing some Xbox Live BF4 Multiplayer! I hope to see a lot of you on the BF4 Multiplayer!

I've recently been converted from COD to Battlefield. This game will truly be innovative unlike COD claims to be. If you want a REAL FPS war game that challenges you, then this is the game to get.

Review 11 for Battlefield 4

Turn It Up!!! Even my fiance likes this...

Posted on:3/31/13

MattlvsKimmsmyGabby

Location: Glen Burnie,MD

My fiance and I watched a long trailer of this game and I just knew she was gonna HATE it. I usually have to wait until these types of games come down to about 20 bucks. It was everything she hates in a game, there were no zombies or fairies or elves...but hold on a minute whats this?! She"gasp" was glued to the T.V. and when she said,' turn up the surround sound!!'(she has never said that..EVER!). She is screaming how are they gonna outrun a helicopter she going..shoot! shoot em! . Then when the group is trapped in the suv under the water she looks at me and says"How in the h**l are they gonna get out of this?!" I just knew I wasn't gonna have to beg to pre-order and buy this one. The graphics and sound alone blow Black Ops 2 out of the hemisphere! I am not a war game guru but I know a great game when I see one. This is one game that is truly going to be EPIC!

This series keeps geting better and better, cant wait for new water combat. Definitaly gona be must first next gen game.

I just got good at BF3 and achieving all the upgrades! Why not release new upgrades to BF3 and new maps and weapons?I would rather spend money on a already proven winner than abandon BF3 and start all over getting e-murdered until my gun gets caught up with the "other guy" with the quick kill upgrds that they already have since they sit at home all day on mom and dads dime on section 8.

This game.Now, to say it is a horrible game would be a complete and blatant lie because it is not a bad game. It is a very good game.BUTI feel like this game is more suited for me serious gamers. (Like the ones that care about graphics, sound quality, K/D, etc)I don't necessarily care about those things, but it's nice to have.I think the multiplayer in this game is rather dull to be honest. I am not really a team player for the most part, I like to stray off and have fun instead of sticking to the objective. I feel like you have more free in Call of Duty games. They are more tailored to the enjoyment of the player, instead of replicating the "Battlefield" experience. Battlefield goes a tad bit too far for my liking. Don't care about piloting airplanes, submarines, and tanks or using them in multiplayer.Campaign.... HORRIBLE. I can't even explain. Just play it and see. (Maybe I'm just biased O.o)Like I said this game is for those specific gamers and if you are one of those players, this is probably the best game ever for you.

This game is going to be epic. The Battlefield series is hands down the best first person shooter series out there. They have the best multi-player with vehicles, destructible enviornments, great team play including reviving fallen team members, healing, ammo resupplying, repairing vehicles, enemy spotting. You can't get this anywhere else. Not to mention they updated the game engine from Frostbite 2 to Frostbite 3. Dice keeps making their games better and better. This is a must have for 2013. I can't wait! The pre-order dog tags Gamestop is giving away are really cool looking I'm going to pre-order right away to ensure I get mine . Thank you Gamestop you guys always give out really cool pre-order bonuses.

Don't waste your money! The copy for 360 is literally the beta. Literally. Anyone who played it will tell you on siege of shanghai the map is identical. Cool you through in more maps. The game was made for X-one and PS4 and they screwed 360 owners. Don't waste your money on last gen versions. Bought at the midnight released and went out and dropped 500 bucks just to get the next gen so i could play the game i THOUGHT i already paid for. If you don't have the cash for an xbox one save your money. EA and DICE should be ashamed of them selves for this. You can't even join into servers half the time... Comander slot full...Comander slot full...Comander slot full...Comander slot full...Comander slot full... with no commanders in game and 10 spots open! REALLY? I hope this at least saves one person money because anyone who gives this 360 copy a half way decent review hasn't played the xbox one version or all call of duty fans finally switching over the a superior game. But, that being said BF3 is better on 360 than this and buy next gen if you want BF4.

This game is the prefect game for gamers who want a challenge. It took me almost 9 months to finally unlock every gun in the game. I still haven't unlocked all the gadgets with Final Stand. The only problem is the campaign SUCKS! Also all you do is shoot people so it gets boring sometimes, but when I play, watch out! -LiverKick65

In BF4, they seem to have fixed a bunch of unrealistic stuff that annoyed me in BF3. I assume that the overall rating is low for this game because most reviews were done by clowns who are still buying the garbage put out by COD.

The only reason this game gets as high as a 6 is because of the amazing story mode. I have played Call of Duty ever since 3, and Battlefield since Bad Company 2, and this game's story mode is by far the most exciting I've ever played in a shooter. HOWEVER, we all get Battlefield and COD for the multiplayer, am I wrong? So here it goes. The graphics are slow. What I mean is that the environment looks bland and blocky. Maybe this wont be an issue for the next gen consoles, but for Xbox 360, it looks like you're playing an original Xbox shooter. The other players look tiny, their movements are cartoony-like, and at times your gun looks like a Minecraft weapon: BLOCKY and UNINTERESTING!

Trust me, I love Battlefield. When I got 3, I put COD down for 2+ years because it just wouldn't satisfy. I pre-ordered this game and had the highest of expectations and hopes. I was thoroughly disappointed. Don't waste your time and money. Granted, some of these problems can be fixed with patches, but to have these problems several weeks after launch??? C'mon EA. You gotta step up.

The only negative would be the servers. Other than that, IT'S A GREAT GAME! I love the test map to hone your skills or customize your gear and test them out, and I love the upgrades from BF3 to BF4 - thought was put into the design and flow. I love the new Commander role, and the coordination/team work is built better because of it during any game mode. Battles are intense, sound is amazing, graphics are good for the Xbox 360, easy to play, challenging to master. From novice to pro, anyone wanting a "realistic" shooter and great action should pick this game up.
